There will be lots of opportunities for questions and discussions
Every course has a riding component that may be purchased directly from Patsy Little for $20.
Closed toe shoes (preferably with a slight heel), long pants, a folder with a pencil are needed to be brought to class each week.
Syllabus
*Please note: it is important to make as informed a decision as possible when choosing your student's Community Resource classes. Most locations will allow a student to drop a class after one meeting, at no charge if it wasn't a good fit for the student, but not all. Some classes plan ahead based on the number that have signed up and have purchased materials, hired teachers, etc. and there might be a fee for class time or materials given to the student if the student drops after one or two meetings. The school cannot pay for classes that students do not complete, so choose wisely; if you do not take the class off of your student's schedule by the deadline, you may be asked to pay for the class time incurred prior to dropping the class.
Teacher of Record: Tom Hurst

If classes are not cancelled and your child(ren) will not be attending class, please call/text/email Patsy in advance. Please contact the instructor in the event of questionable weather.
